Golden State Warriors: 5 shooters the team can trade for with Korver off the block
Evan Fournier
A terrific talent, Evan Fournier has been underrated his entire career. Averaging over 15 points per game for the fourth consecutive season, Fournier isn’t quite a star-level talent, but he is a player you can trust to produce every night.
He’s been disappointing from three this season, but that hasn’t stopped him from taking a significant amount of attempts from downtown. He’s averaging 6.4 per game yet converting just 1.9, a mere 29.3%.
However, in Orlando, Fournier’s shots aren’t quite the most ideal. Being one of the team’s main scoring options, Fournier’s looks are far more difficult than most players. Still knocking down over 40% of his overall looks, he would see significantly better shots from deep in Golden State.
Fournier is making a significant chunk, exactly $17 million a season. That means if any deal were to go down it’d also have to involve either a superstar talent or Andre Iguodala. While it might not be likely, the Warriors bench would go from 0 to 100 real quick with Fournier’s addition.
The Dubs should make an attempt to enhance their pitiful second unit. These five options are all ways they could do so.
